What happens if the device has already detected and his heating a pan and you get a ringed finger near it? Does the pan absorb all the energy, or can you get burnt this way?
@t6477kb Not enough metal to trigger the control circuits. An induction unit won't turn on unless it 'senses' a pan or large metal object. A ring wont trigger it ( at least on my cooker... tried it ).
Induction cooking is great, but I can't believe presenter said it can use "most every cooking set out there, except glass." That's not true. It need NOT be expensive, but aluminum, copper, and most stainless pots will NOT work with induction cooktops unless one "cheats" by placing a steel disk on top of the burner -- the steel heats up, then ANY pot, including glass, can be used on top of the steel -- but using the plate pretty much converts your induction to an ordinary conduction cooktop.
@dfgriggs true yeah? the higher the magnetic response in the cookware, the better the heat reaction. I havent used cast iron on one, but youd think it would work well.
@jaxo1 True stainless steel is not magnetic. Anytime you see something with stainless steel on it that is magnetic, most notably refrigerators, there is only a fine layer of SS on top of another metal which is magnetic and probably less expensive. I'll bet your silverware isn't magnetic. Common mistake though and I only learned that selling appliances including induction cooktops.

Dangerous if you wear a metal watch... Trust me!

If you could use it with any cookware except glass as she claims no one would buy standard electric cooktops anymore. Ever. It'll eventually happen.

Note that many stainless steel items do NOT stick to a magnet. Depends upon the alloy. Carry a small magnet when shopping for the pots.

what about if your wearing rings will they heat instantly?

@dfgriggs oh nooo, that's too much to go through. I'm better off buying ferrous (magnetic) metals in order for this masterpiece to work properly.

@dfgriggs If it's stainless STEEL, it should work. Anything that sticks to a magnet works.

it's not new technology; been around for many decades. why is it so sidelined? good question
